Edison Chen's Allergic Reaction Scare Hong Kong star, Edison Chen's popularity has always seemed unaffected despite negative media. Recently, he has flown to Taiwan to promote his latest album. His first job in Taiwan was to attend a promotional event, where the radio station workers organised for him to play with a valuable leopard cat. But this caused quite a surprise when Edison began getting an allergic reaction to the feline, causing a fright to the organisers. Edison showed off his creative skills as he began designing a shoe and t-shirt with leopard prints as its main pattern. The singer/actor, who is also very fond of animals, then began playing with a leopard cat, valued at TW$500 000. In the joy of playing with the cat, Edison kissed it but he did not know this would cause his handsome lips to swell up because of an allergic reaction. This frightened the workers, as they rushed to around to clean up Edison's lip, make sure he was fine and then find a make up artist to ensure the redness of the swelling was not to be seen. This incident caused Edison to cancel his interviews after the event. Edison expressed that he was surprised about the allergic reaction because his friend had a pet cat in USA but during the time he spent with the cat, he did not have any allergic reactions.
